SCALING ALARM SETPOINTS

This section is for users who do not have SMS and must set up alarms from

 

the circuit monitor display. It explains how to scale alarm setpoints.

 

When the circuit monitor is equipped with a display, the display area is 4 x 20

 

characters, which limits the displaying of most metered quantities to five

 

characters (plus a positive or negative sign). The display will also show the

 

engineering units applied to that quantity.

 

 

To determine the proper scaling of an alarm setpoint, view the register

 

number for the associated scale group. The scale factor is the number in the

 

Dec column for that register. For example, the register number for Scale D to

 

Phase Volts is 3212. If the number in the Dec column is 1, the scale factor is

 

10 (101=10). Remember that scale factor 1 in Table 6–1 on page 91 for Scale

 

Group D is measured in kV. Therefore, to define an alarm setpoint of 125 kV,

 

enter 12.5 because 12.5 multiplied by 10 is 125. Below is a table listing the

 

scale groups and their register numbers.
